Green Bean Soup from Italy
- Ingredients
- 350 grams green Beans
- salt
- 2 stalks Celery
- 1 onion
- 1 garlic clove

Rinse, trim and blanch the green beans for about 3 minutes in boiling salted water. Drain, rinse with cold water, then drain again. Cut into 4 cm (approximately 1 1/2 inch) long pieces.
Rinse, trim and cut the celery into thin slices. Peel the onion and garlic, cut the onion into strips and finely chop the garlic.
In a saucepan, heat 2 tablespoons of oil and sweat the onion with the garlic until translucent. Add the celery and sauté briefly. Pour in the tomatoes and broth. Add green beans and herbs and simmer for 10-15 minutes over medium heat.
Meanwhile, peel the apple and cut into quarters, remove seeds and grate coarsely. If necessary, peel dry sausage and cut diagonally into slices. Add the grated apple and sausage to the soup, season with salt and pepper to taste and simmer for another 5 minutes. Pour in small bowls and serve sprinkled with parmesan.
